Default RE: Tower Hobbies engine problems

I have a Tower Hobbies .46 which I have had for about four months. After triing the suggested break in procedure, I had numerous problems. It would not idle correctly, It would not stay running regardless of the glow plug I used or what I did. So finally after spending a little money (7.55) I sent my engine to Hobby Service. on a Tuesday and they recieved it on Friday mourning and discovered that the problem was an air leak. That same day they sent me another engine. They said I would get it by Wensday of next week. Hopefully after this the engine will work fine. The reason why I posted this message was to let every body out there new. How fast and responsive Hobby Services has been. So they are willing to help and will. Good luck with your TH .46 and happy flying.
